\"\"<\/a>Coys of Kensington will be hosting a True Greats auction on December 1, and among the items for sale will be an MG service manual (Lot 1), a Corvette poster (Lot 61), and some pre-WWII driving gauntlets (Lot 81). Oh, and there’ll also be the matter of Lot 142, a number plate reading “D1ANA” expected to pull down £100,000. That’s $164,174 to us here in the American system.<\/p>\n

That’s no small beer, certainly, yet while it might appear to be impressive, other less obviously impressive number plates have recently been fetching ridiculous amounts<\/a>: aside from the UK tuner who bought the “F 1” plate<\/a> for $870,000, earlier this year a gent – also in the UK – bought “1 D” for $513,000. And it’s not just our British pals in that game: “D1ANA” is far less fetching than the number “6,” which was bought by a Delaware man for $675,000<\/a>. So there.<\/p>\n

The preliminary viewing was today, but it’s not too late to get in on the auction. Follow the jump for the press release, and get your pounds and pence ready.<\/p>\n
